I just saw the original movie INTO THE MIRROR.I was blown away...by the fact it was worse than this.MIRRORS have obvious flaws but it still made want to keep watching.INTO THE MIRROR,on the other hand,was plain boring.Since I knew the ending would be the same,I looked at it with the same eyes I did with MIRRORS,like I didn't know.It turns out the ending is bad on both movies.In MIRRORS it makes no sense.In INTO THE MIRROR it only makes sense if you look at it as an artsy film,which it isn't.It completely killed the tone of the movie.Actually,it didn't,since the movie wasn't a horror flick like they promised.It was mostly talking.

Yeah, see -- this is what half-assed storytelling does to your movie when you don't bother to explain everything because the movie is just one long set-up for a sequel that won't happen. Here's a crazy idea, Hollywood, try making a single, stand-alone movie first, then see how it does with critics and audiences, and then ... AND ONLY THEN ... make as many sequels as you like.

1)At no point there's even a hint that the Mirror World is where dead people go.

2)How would you explain that Kiefer's son entered the World through water?

There's also 15 other questions(literally)that haven't been answered and won't because of the script.I guess we can try to hold on to the explanations of the original movie.

The Four Horsemen of the Moviepocalypse: uncalled for sequels/remakes/reboots, 3-D surcharges, untalented "celebrities", and anything with Michael Bay's name attached to it.

2/10.Why?The ending had the same tone as the one from the director's cut of THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT.If it wasn't for that ending,I would've give it like a 4.It's barely scary.

If there is any reason at all why this movie will do well, it will be because of Kiefer Sutherland is in it.

Actually,why didn't he get nominated?He wasn't awful,but come on!I understand it's not 100% easy to cry and makes us feel emotional at the same time.But who screams like that when being on fire?I know the director of that scene was a replacement(Aja's wife was in labor),but still.

Well, it's not actually a remake. Aja used the same concept with evil spirits behind mirrors but dramatically changed everything else. Oh, and I don't think the original film was that good as compared to Ringu, Shutter, and all that jazz.
